Hymn to Her

Let me inside you, into your room

I've heard it's lined with the things you don't show

Lay me beside you down on the floor

I've been your lover from the womb to the tomb

I dress as your daughter when the moon becomes round

You'll be my mother when everything's gone

And she will always carry on

Somethin' is lost, but somethin' is found

They will keep on speakin' her name

Some things change, some stay the same

Keep beckonin' to me from behind that closed door

The maid and the mother and the crone that's grown old

I hear your voice comin' out of that hole

I listen to you and I want some more

I listen to you and I want some more

And she will always carry on

Somethin' is lost, but somethin' is found

They will keep on speakin' her name

Some things change, some stay the same

She will always carry on

Somethin' is lost, but somethin' is found

They will keep on speakin' her name

Some things change, some stay the same

Let me inside you, into your room

I've heard it's lined with the things you don't show

Lay me beside you down on the floor

I've been your lover from the womb to the tomb

I dress as your daughter when the moon becomes round

You'll be my mother when everything's gone

And she will always carry on

Somethin' is lost, but somethin' is found

They will keep on speakin' her name

Some things change, some stay the same

She will always carry on

Somethin' is lost, but somethin' is found

They will keep on speakin' her name

Some things change, some stay the same

And she will always carry on

Somethin' is lost, but somethin' is found

They will keep on speakin' her name

Some things change, some stay the same
